EN 3240 Thou Whom My Soul Admires Above
Matt.26.26
Versi Version 1
1
Thou Whom my soul admires above
All earthly joy and earthly love,
Tell me, dear Shepherd, let me know,
Where do Thy sweetest pastures grow?
2
Where is the shadow of that rock
That from the sun defends Thy flock?
Fain would I feed among Thy sheep
Among them rest, among them sleep.
3
Why should Thy bride appear like one
That turns aside to paths unknown?
My constant feet would never rove,
Would never seek another love.
4
The footsteps of Thy flock I see;
Thy sweetest pastures here they be;
A wondrous feast thy love prepares,
Bought with Thy wounds, and groans, and tears.
5
His dearest flesh He makes my food,
And bids me drink His richest blood:
Here to these hills my soul will come,
Till my Beloved lead me home.
